    @MuhammadAbdullah-st2jb Рік тому +1

    I agree that you shouldn't say "im writing to you because.." but when it comes to writing a letter It may be acceptable to say things like "this letter discusses" "I'm informing you" or "I'm writing to you solely on the reason..". So you can use it but only at the start and it has to be brief.

    • @FirstRateTutors
      @FirstRateTutors  Рік тому +4

    An amazing video once again. Really helped me revising for mock examinations. Just a question: do you not think it is slightly unrealistic that in 40 minutes we can write something of that standard and as long as you did. Do you mind me asking whether you spent 40 minutes?

    • @niamhcaitlin9252
      @niamhcaitlin9252 9 місяців тому

      Hi, although it is advised to spend 45-50 minutes on this question, you can spend longer if you get the other questions done quickly. But do not rush as there is plenty of time in the exam. Hope this helped and good luck with your mocks 😊❤

  • @supeaa1090

    shouldn't you be using ambitious vocab and more language and structure devices?

    • @codysmith6225
      @codysmith6225 Рік тому +6

      There is. Ambitious vocab such as "plethora" and "skeptical" has been implemented for a more sophisticated tone.
      There's also a lot of structural and language techniques, such as rhetorical questions, "what are the ways I can volunteer?"; tricolons, "children's charities, animal charities, homeless charities"; hypophora, "What is it? It is your duty."; alliteration, "down and depressed".
      There is also of course varying sentence structures and collective pronouns, also direct address such as "you". Also, there are numerous good ways in which there has been attempts to empathise with the listener (especially towards the end) when she says things like "you may struggle".
      You don't need to constantly use ridiculously impressive words to maintain a high level of sophistication/tone, however I do agree that you should use as ambitious vocabulary as you can IF it suits the tone and you are fully aware of the definition of the word (plus its spelling) in relation to the context of what you're writing.

However before my english teacher said we wouldn't do any literature paper for our mocks so i didn't revise for it and focused on language instead. But yesterday i found out that infact i do have a literature paper which will be based on macbeth and inspector calls. I have revised for macbeth for my last mocks and i also did jekyl and hyde, however this mocks i am doing macbeth and inspector calls which i havn't prepared for inspector calls. My mocks start next week and so im wondering if there is any quotes you could give me for inspector calls. I am stressing out a little bit and if there is any tips for inspector calls please let me know. Thank you so much!
